+ * The intended usage is for each thread's main loop to go about its business
* servicing whatever events it needs to. Then, when it runs out of immediate
* tasks, it calls each subordinate module's "wait" function, which in turn
* calls one (or more) of the functions poll_fd_wait(), poll_immediate_wake(),
* and poll_timer_wait() to register to be awakened when the appropriate event
* occurs. Then the main loop calls poll_block(), which blocks until one of

+ * =============

+ * The poll set is per-thread, so all functions in this module are thread-safe.
